The Higantes of Legazpi, Albay, Bicol


At a recent trip to Legazpi,
I was met by an interesting group of folks-
Higantes,
Giants:
Made of Paper, sticks, glue and paint...

Mayon Volcano must have erupted recently
and spewed them -
as they came out in full force...

Higantes 
ready to tickle the hearts 
of both young and old...

Meet my new friends from the underworld,
they are such characters...




the newborn baby- not so happy to be born in the city

the OBGYN :  bloodied after the delivery...

the bouncer: had a recent silicon implant, from you know who...

the watchman: caught in the middle of his/her bathroom break

in full regalia- must be their chieftain

the chieftain's attendant

the chieftain's bodyguard

the first lady

grandpa- must have been drunk

the loyal general

the first lady's macho man boyfriend

the chieftain's jealous girlfriend
